^ it exists in the omw folder

@JamesArthurHolland the OMW lines that you quote don't mean that "murciélago" exists as a single word in OMW-1.4, but that it exists as a part of two compounds:

from nltk.corpus import wordnet as wn print(wn.synsets("murciélago_ratonero", lang="spa"))

[Synset('mouse-eared_bat.n.01')]

print(wn.synsets("murciélago_trompudo_mexicano", lang="spa"))

[Synset('hognose_bat.n.01')]

print(wn.synsets("bat")[0].lemmas(lang="spa"))

[Lemma('bat.n.01.chiroptera')]

However, the word "murciélago" exists in the Spanish wordnet released by MCR in 2016, so it could help if OMW caught up with that data.
